Hey guys how many of you expecting your step 2 ck results on March 5th along with me. Took my exam on 12th Feb and I must say the exam was way harder than anything I had expected it to be
Good luck buddy!!
What was your progression on the NBME s and UWSA??
Yeah you wouldn't get to see your step 1 report there anymore and I have no idea where can you see it but didn't you save the score report pdf file that you got at that time.
Awesome scores ! You should be 250+, you've two scores of 250+ in the assessments! I agree, actual exam wasn't even close to nbme or uswa, and it was so vague !
did you guys have a lot of preventative medicine questions on your exam? I'm currently not doing too well on them. I've only done 17% on uworld. Happy-2
any suggestions as to how to improve on the PM section? did you find Uworld enough for PM?
Exam was vague and hard. I gave mine on 20 feb 2014.questions were confusing and options were not one would expect to find.but of course there were straight forward questions.but overall I felt it very vague and confusing.i scored 245 plus in all my assesments.but exam was not like assesments.
Hopefully everyone gets what they worked for.Best wishes
Good luck everyone , wish you all the best for all of you as it seems that you all worked hard ,
I have 2 questions ,
after you got to the exam , what would you change in your study if you have to come back to study again ? what things will you do more or do it differently?
in step one everybody said that the exam was typically from uworld and that is what i found , what about step 2 , is it as in step 1 has the same concepts of uworld , or NBMES and to which one is it closer ?
It'd be great if those of you who get their results tomorrow could post their scores and also include a brief summary of what they used for preparation, their UW overall performance and self-assessments. Good luck everyone.
guys do you know how much UWSA correlate to the score ?
my senior colleagues(4-5 doctors ) told me that it was overestimating by 10 points according to their experience
if uwsa overpredicts and nbmes are outdates, which leaves the real exam upto anything ! I guess nothing is a good predictor then !! 10 points is alot !!!
Problem is people who score well in exam post their experiences because they get what their assesment score predicts.but frankly speaking for step 2 ck none of the assesment is accurate if you compare the exam.
Exam was kind of tough in the way I was made to choose between close options like never before.
Rest I can say only after result.
Good luck everyone
